    The John Lewis advert is good, I think they missed a trick by having someone "known" sing a cover version though, it was always nice hearing new voices be discovered.

    Who sang the song this year?

    Lily allen does a cover version of keanes somewhere only we know.The bear and the hare is the name of the Christmas tv ad, definitely a future classic.

    Cadbury has a Christmas ad this year.

    I love the new John Lewis ad, it made me all teary eyed, it's just lovely and simple. I'm liking how they, Tesco and Debenhams are taking a simpler and less extravagant approach to Christmas this year, which reflects the fact that so many people are struggling financially.

    The ones I've mentioned seem more focused on cheaper more thoughtful gifts rather than the extravagance of the M&S one.

    I love the new John Lewis one too- I think it's adorable!

    *has something in eye*


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Tis very cute alright, I thought the one from last year was a bit more moving/grand/what have you; but it's still a really sweet ad.


  • Registered Users Posts: 424 ✭✭LoganRice


    I like the M&S and John Lewis ads! Looking forward to seeing the Coca-Cola and Kellogs ads as well; they reel, or intentionally drag, in the spirit of Christmas.

    Anyone who doesn't well up at the John Lewis ad is emotionally dead. I feel myself getting all emotional every time I see it. It's such a simple ad but so effective.

    I don't consider the m & s tv ad to be a Christmas ad at all . more like something to remind you of halloween .


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭psugrue


    this vodafone one from a few years ago was one my favorites, they used it again the year after but with a different song.

    Nope,not this fella.....

    I never care for xmas ads,but whenever I see that upsetting commercial for Focus Ireland,where the homeless are walking the street looking at everybody else enjoying xmas,with the song "I am going home" playing-any time I see that I know I'm not "emotionally dead".
